Google Ads for roofers: how to get roofing leads without wasting spend

A roof replacement is one of the most valuable leads in home services, so roofing clicks are expensive. The good news: one extra signed job a month usually pays for the whole campaign.

Campaigns by job type

  • Replacement: "roof replacement", "new roof cost", "shingle roof replacement Edmonton". Highest value, so highest bids.
  • Repair: "roof leak repair", "roof repair near me". Faster decisions, smaller tickets, but they lead to replacements.
  • Storm and hail: turned up after a storm, with ads about inspections and insurance claims.

Follow the season

Around Edmonton, roofing demand moves with the weather: busy from spring through fall, with spikes after hailstorms. Lower budgets in deep winter and raise them quickly after a storm.

Negative keywords for roofing

  • Materials: shingles for sale, roofing supplies, prices per bundle.
  • DIY: how to shingle, roof repair kit.
  • Jobs: roofer jobs, roofing apprentice.
  • Types you don’t do, such as flat commercial roofs.

Landing pages that close

Homeowners want proof. Use a page per job type with real project photos, your reviews, warranty details, financing if you offer it, and a short quote form.

Measure signed jobs, not leads

Roofing leads vary wildly in value. Tell your agency which leads signed, so budget moves toward the searches that bring replacements.
